Rosberg to race for Mercedes F1 team

RELATED NEWS

Germany's Nico Rosberg will race for Mercedes next season, said the team that won the Formula One championship as Brawn this year.

Rosberg has spent the last four years competing for Williams. Yet to win a race in 70 starts, the 24-year-old son of Finland's 1982 champion Keke finished seventh overall this season.

Mercedes took over the team last week.

Brawn, who emerged from the remains of the Honda team, won both titles in their debut season but Britain's world champion Jenson Button has joined McLaren while Brazilian Rubens Barrichello has taken Rosberg's place at Williams.

Mercedes have yet to name their second driver, amid media speculation that seven-times world champion Michael Schumacher could be tempted out of retirement at the age of 41.

Finland's 2007 champion Kimi Raikkonen, who has announced plans to take a year out after leaving Ferrari, could be another option while Germany's Nick Heidfeld is available and seen as a safe pair of hands.
